It was Nagnajati's swayamvar and The King had set condition for the marriage of Nagnajiti that her husband should win her by defeating his seven ferocious bulls in combat. However, no prince who challenged to do the task could control the seven bulls to win the hand of Nagnajiti.
When Krishna came to know of the challenge, he set out for Kosala Kingdom with a large retinue. As Krishna approached Nagnajit in his court, the king rose from his throne and honoured Krishna with gifts and welcomed him warmly to Kosala. Naganjiti was also very joyful to see Krishna and prayed that Krishna be her husband.
Both the king and his daughter are aware of Krishna's divinity. Nagnajit worshiped Krishna and asks the purpose of his visit. When Krishna declared that he wished to marry Nagnajiti, the King stated, "There is no better husband for my daughter, but I have taken a vow that I will marry my daughter to a brave prince who would bring the seven bulls under control."
The King also praised Krishna's valour and told him that he could easily tame the seven bulls which had almost mauled the other princes who had tried.
Upon listening to the king, Krishna entered the arena expanding into seven forms and easily put a noose around the seven bulls, humbling the bulls.
